In the immortal words of Catherine, Called Birdy: I have an inspired notion! Okay, probably other people have already had this notion and this notion may even exist somewhere out there in the universe, but I’m going to talk about it anyway. While I was in Dallas my hotel gym had some of those fancypants treadmills with iPod hookups...

There are the standard, expected Disney souvenirs – t-shirts and sweatshirts and picture frames and magnets and all manner of things shaped like Mickey Mouse and emblazoned with the Disney logo. These things are awesome and I have lots. They cheer me up immeasurably when I am away from WDW and I love that. But then, too, there are...

I know it’s wildly common for people to have that dream, the night before a race, that they have slept through their alarm. This image also helpfully doubles as a metaphor for running itself. OH GOD NOT GOING FAST ENOUGH (source) I am WAY AHEAD OF YOU. Sure, I’ve had that dream. I’ve had it the night before the...

JENN: How’d your training go this week? MOON: The last part of the week was good! I fiiiiinally have some new music! JENN: Yay! MOON: Nothing motivates me more than a good jam. How was yours? JENN: Okay. I ran outside exclusively this week. The first run went well, but the humidity was so high the next two days that I felt awful. MOON: Awww....

Booth Item Notes Belgium Potato & leek waffle w/ beer-braised beef I...

What you are about to see may hurt you a little. You may feel betrayed. You may wonder how I could possibly let this happen. I DIDN’T KNOW, OKAY? I DIDN’T KNOW. It was the last time my family went to Walt Disney World, 1998. I was a mere twelve years of age. Disney’s Animal Kingdom had yet to...

JENN: Ready for bloggery? MOON: I’m ready! JENN: Yay! Okay, how was your training this week? MOON: Good! Nothing too special to report, but I did try out a new route near my future home. It was crazy humid that morning, but it was nice and not a lot of traffic. JENN: Oooh, any good trails or anything? MOON: Not trails, really… just roads. However,...

JENN: It’s time to break out the confetti and festive hats, because it’s our BLOGIVERSARY! The Fairest Run of All is one year old as of yesterday! (And we would’ve posted about that yesterday but it was Week In Review day and one must adhere to the schedule at all costs, no?) Read our first post here. MOON: Wow!! No...

Hey, remember that time I helped my boss plan her Walt Disney World vacation? And she invented WWJGD? Well, she’s tragically not my boss anymore, but I did have breakfast with her last week and she brought me back a present from the trip! How awesome is this travel mug? I love the Mary Blair-esque design. I don’t generally...
Continue readingIn Which Jenn Ponders the Lack of Brinner in WDW
Walt Disney World is the place where dreams come true, and this goes for all things culinary. Wish fulfillment: giant cupcakes, cuisines from all around the world, rivers of plastic cheese. And yet there is one thing it simply does not offer. I’m talkin’ ’bout brinner. Seriously, think about it. What breakfast items will WDW sell you past 11AM?...
